If you remember the exhausting saga of the 79 Midget, I've got the header on
and will make all of the appropriate connections to the carb and cooling
system that have been done. The header just dumps under the car at this
point, my question is, is the car ok to drive to the muffler shop, about 1.5
miles without an exhuast system. Obviously, I would have the windows open so
I don't die from the fumes. My two concerns are harming the engine and how
much noise the thing will produce and will it attract the local constabulary?
Any thoughts? I have AAA so it would not cost anything to have it flatbeded
over, but then I am at the mercy of AAA. The people at the muffler shop tell
me that they need the car to be running, they don't want to push it. The guy
I talked to also had a concern that the midget may not fit on their lifts,
anyone else have that problem? Thanks for all of the help, once Chuch ground
the header to the right size, it only took an hour to get it on, including
those lovely nuts under the header, I was even able to get a box end on them
to make sure they are good and tight.
